The OVV AM 5.6’s frame is made from a high-quality Bosch Supreme 5 aluminium alloy and features an integrated design with 160 mm of suspension travel. The UDH dropout ensures additional stability and durability. The RockShox 35 Gold RL fork also offers 160 mm of travel and contributes to a smooth ride, whilst the Lapierre Shock Trunnion rear shock enhances comfort on rough terrain.

Braking performance is provided by Shimano M4100 four-piston brakes, which offer reliable stopping power even on challenging descents. The gear system is based on the Shimano Deore RD-M5100 11-speed system, supported by the Deore SL-M5100 shift lever, which enables precise and responsive gear changes. The drivetrain is complemented by a KMC E11 Turbo chain.

The crankset consists of the Lapierre Overvolt ISIS with a 34-tooth E13 steel chainring, whilst the cassette is a Shimano Deore CS-M5100 with a range of 11–51T. The combination of these components ensures that the bike performs optimally both uphill and downhill.

The wheels feature Lapierre eAM+ rims, measuring 622x30 mm at the front and 584x35 mm at the rear, and are tubeless-ready. The Maxxis tyres – a 29x2.5 WT Assegai at the front and a 27.5x2.8 Minion DHR II at the rear – offer excellent grip and stability on a variety of surfaces.

The OVV AM 5.6 is powered by a Bosch Performance Line CX Gen4 motor, which, in combination with the Bosch PowerTube 625 battery, offers a capacity of 625 Wh. The Purion display allows for easy control and monitoring of the systems.

Further features include a Selle Royal Vivo saddle, a Lapierre dropper seatpost with variable drop depending on frame size, and a Lapierre CNC aluminium stem and handlebars. The grips are specially adapted to the respective frame size to ensure maximum comfort.
